On most aircraft, United Global First suites also offer laptop power, USB ports and personal on-demand entertainment.

United is investing $550 million in fleet-wide onboard improvements, including offering the world’s largest fleet of flat-bed seats, with more than 175 aircraft with 180-degree flat beds in premium cabins once the airline completes the installation in early 2013.

United also anticipates launching satellite-based Wi-Fi on international wide-body aircraft by the end of the year, enabling customers to stay connected while travelling on long-haul overseas routes.
